** Description changed:

  In Ubuntu 11.10, I can't play .mkv and some .flv videos in Totem (some
  other .flv videos do work). I don't get any messages, they just don't
  play. I see only the first frame of the .mkv or .flv video freezing on
  Totem where it says "Playing" at the left-bottom, the time stays 0:00 /
  0:00 and the audio is automatically muted  every time I play any .mkv or
  .flv video.
+ 
+ When I right click in Nautilus to see the properties of these not-
+ playing files I get a popup window saying "Creating Properties window.
+ You can stop this operation by clicking cancel." -- and that is all I
+ get. From the files that do play, I do get a properties window.
